Harden isn't really more of a flopper than guys like CP3 or Manu.

On that side of the ball, he's a complete joke. I've actually been a really big fan of his, but his defensive "effort" has me disliking his game more and more.

You saw the Blazers go right at him to start the game. Wes took him right down to the post. Webber said it was to wear him out so he couldn't be as strong on the offensive end. That may be part of it, but the primary reason to go at him is that it's simply easy to score on him.
"Unemotional and objective about the Rockets?" Seriously???? He's anything BUT that. Its like he was beaten with an Hakeem Olajuwon action figure as a child or something... Go back and read some of his posts and then say he's "objective" without laughing.

As for your take on Harden, you're spot on.
